We are always thrilled to be featured by the leading bridal magazine in the South!
Here's one of our many favorite photos from the latest shoot for the magazine on the amazing beaches at the San Destin Hilton. To top it all off, our own Janice Allen did the amazing hairstyles for the shoot!
We were so happy to work once again with the beautiful models at IZON agency.
